For what it's worth, on two KDE-centric distros, Mepis Beta (with KDE 3.
something ) and Mandriva 2009 with KDE 4, I had trouble. In all cases,
I had to stop the various wpa and dhclient things being run and do it
manually. In both cases, it would, according to iwconfig, connect, but
it wouldn't get an address, whether I manually configured it or tried
with DHCP.
Equally FWIW, this laptop has Mandriva 2009 with KDE 4, and the wireless works
flawlessly.
